Obama Deploys for War, While the 25th Amendment Is Evoked as the Solution

December 6th, 2015

LaRouche

Obama continues his mobilization for war with Russia. NATO is planning to send fighter planes and anti-aircraft missiles to Turkey -- with Russia the only target for such offensive weapons -- as US Secretary of Defense Ash Carter announced Tuesday the deployment of 200 U.S. hunt-and-kill special forces to Iraq, to seek out and kill ISIS leaders in both Iraq and Syria. Not "advisors" and "trainers," but assassination teams. Even Iraq reacted against the mad killer, as Prime Minister al-Abadi told the press that Iraq needed training, weapons, and advice from the international community, "not foreign ground combat forces fighting on Iraqi soil." He added that such a deployment "can't be done without [the government's] approval, full coordination and with full respect to Iraqi sovereignty."

Calls for the application of the 25th Amendment were published in several US press today, as the necessary means to remove Obama from office on the grounds that he is no longer mentally capable of performing his duties. Lyndon LaRouche has repeatedly called for the application of this Amendment to be immediately applied before Obama succeeds in launching a war of human extinction.

Obama's appearance at the Paris Climate Change conference was so incoherent that even one of his staunch supporters, Washington Post reporter Richard Cohen, published a column titled "Obama, a President who lost his voice," saying that "his eloquence has been replaced by petulance and he has lost the power to persuade," and that "his problem is that he often has nothing to say."

However, journalist Mark Whittington of examiner.com responded: "Has Barack Obama just lost his voice, or has he lost his mind?" He continued: "Failing impeachment, maybe Vice President Biden can convene the cabinet, invoke the 25th Amendment, and declare President Obama mentally incompetent to serve out the remainder of his term."

LaRouche noted today that it was Vladimir Putin who set this process into motion, in his speech to the United Nations General Assembly in September, when he calmly but firmly laid out the criminal actions of the Obama Administration in ripping up the UN Charter, launching illegal wars, imposing regime change, and carrying out drone killings around the world. The international audience was repulsed by the truth of Obama's actions, and Obama since then has brought it on himself.

The fear of Obama is the only thing holding back the American people, as well as leaders around the world, from telling the truth, and demanding that he be removed, that the US and Europe instead join with Russia, China, and the BRICS nations in building the world through the Global Silk Road process, as the only means of stopping the Bush-Obama perpetual warfare policy. As Franklin Roosevelt said in the face of fascism, "There is nothing to fear but fear itself."

Representative Gabbard Warns Administration of Nuclear War Resulting from U.S. 'War To Overthrow the Government of Assad'

>Dec. 1, 2015 (EIRNS)-House Armed Services Committee hearing: Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) questions Defense Secretary Ashton Carter at 2 hours 50 minutes of the C-SPAN hearing record.

GABBARD: Since our policy to overthrow the Syrian government of Assad has brought us, essentially, into a direct head-to-head conflict with Russia, I have some important questions along this line. How many nuclear warheads does Russia have aimed at the U.S., and how many does the U.S. have aimed at Russia?

CARTER: Congresswoman, I will get you those precise numbers as best we know them. [Then states that both sides have an awesome nuclear capacity.]

GABBARD: Right. And it would be correct to say that both of our countries have the capacity to launch these nuclear weapons within minutes?

CARTER: We do.

GABBARD: I've seen pictures, images from Nagasaki and Hiroshima, and I know you have as well. I assume you would agree with me that nuclear war would be devastating for the American people; the amount of suffering it would cause to our families, to our children, our communities, our planet, to future generations, is difficult to imagine. So I'm wondering if there's been an assessment that has been done, of how many lives would be lost, and the damage that would be done if this nuclear war between our two countries were to occur?

CARTER: Congresswoman, I've been doing this for a long time, since the Cold War, and working on nuclear weapons since the beginning of my career. There have been estimates made right along, when it was the Soviet Union, then with Russia, and it is as you say: Nuclear war would result in catastrophic destruction. That is why deterrence is so important; that is why prudence by leaders all over the world is so important.

GABBARD: So, the fact that we now have our F-15s patrolling the Turkey-Syria border, with a primary air-to-air combat operation-there is no air-to-air combat against ISIS; they don't have any air assets; so, I can only presume that the purpose of these planes is to target Russian planes. Is that accurate?

CARTER: Congresswoman, let me answer the point you began with. We have a very different view from Russia, about what would be constructive for them to do in Syria. We have that disagreement. We can't align ourselves with that they're doing. We're opposing, and want them to change, what they're doing in Syria. That's not the same as the United States and Russia clashing. I think the Chairman [Gen. Joseph Dunford] and his Russian counterpart [Gen. Valery Gerasimov] talked about yesterday, about making sure that we don't have, by accident, any incident involving U.S. and Russian forces. ...

GABBARD: But that sharp disagreement, with two diametrically opposed objectives-one, the U.S. government seeking to overthrow the government of Assad; the other, Russia seeking to uphold the Syrian government of Assad-creates that potential, that strong potential and strong likelihood for head-to-head combat-or that head-to-head military conflict. And Russia's installation of their anti-aircraft missile defense system increases that possibility of-whether it's an accidental or intentional event, where one side may shoot down the other side's plane. And that's really where the potential is for this devastating nuclear war, for something that could blow up into something much larger.

CARTER: I have to disagree with something you have said.... [etc

After Paris Attack, Another TV Special on Releasing the Redacted 28 Pages on Saudi Role in 9/11

Nov. 30, 2015 (EIRNS)-On Nov. 29th, Sharyl Attkisson, the aggressive investigative TV journalist who sued the Justice Department for illegally monitoring her computer at CBS TV, aired a 9-minute special segment on her show, "Full Measure," about the Saudi role in terrorism, the 28 redacted pages, and Barack Obama's stonewalling on releasing those pages. Attkisson introduced the topic by saying that this important issue is being aired in the context of the recent attacks by ISIS.

One of the main people interviewed was Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-MA), a co-sponsor of H.RES 14, the resolution to release the 28 pages, first introduced by Rep. Walter Jones (R-NC).

Attkisson also aired footage from the Jan. 7, 2015 press conference organized by Rep. Jones, that showed former Sen. Bob Graham (D-FL), who co-chaired the Joint Congressional Inquiry committee that produced the report that included the 28 pages.

"The Saudis know what they did, and they know that we know what they did," Senator Graham said.

"The position of the United States government has been to protect Saudi Arabia, at virtually every step of the judicial process."

Immediately following Graham's accusation about protecting the Saudis, the show cut to a picture of Obama shaking hands with a group of Saudis with the voice-over saying,

"Could the 28 pages unravel the alliance between the U.S. and a close Arab ally in the Mideast? Terry Strada (9/11 families' activist; the widow of one of the men killed at the World Trade Center) thinks that relationship is secondary to her right to know what happened."

Why are the pages classified? Rep. Lynch says,

"Having read the 28 pages ... [I think it is] to allow those individuals to escape accountability."

Attkisson ended with a report on the many Congressional supporters of H.RES 14, and with a statement from former Congressman Pete Hoekstra (R-MI), the former ranking member of the House Select Committee on Intelligence. "I really can't come up with a good reason to keep the pages classified," Hoekstra says.
